Objectives Identify and describe properties of quadrilaterals (including the parallelogram, rhombus and trapezium), and classify using parallel sides, equal sides, equal angles. Classify polygons (including a range of quadrilaterals) using criteria such as the number of right angles, whether or not they are regular and their symmetrical properties. Classify 2D shapes according to the number of sides, vertices and right angles. Recognise and make 2D representations of 3D shapes including nets. Visualise and describe the properties of 3D shapes, e.g. faces, edges and vertices.

Shapes and Solids

Position and Movement Review C

Predict where a polygon will be after one reflection, where the sides of the shape are not parallel or perpendicular to the mirror line, after one translation or after a rotation through 90 about one of its vertices. Revision - Geometry Strand Solve a problem by representing, extracting and interpreting data in tables, graphs, charts and diagrams, e.g. line graphs for distance and time; a price ready-reckoner for currency conversion; frequency tables and bar charts with grouped discrete data.

6B 9 Handling Data

Find the mode and range of a set of data from relevant situations, e.g. scientific experiments. Begin to find the median and mean of a set of data. Explore how statistics are used in everyday life. 10 Probability Review D Use the language associated with probability to discuss events, to assess likelihood and risk, including those with equally likely outcomes. Revision - Handling Data Strand Know various appropriate strategies and heuristics to solve problems. Explore and solve number problems and puzzles, e.g. logic problems. Problem Solving Use ordered lists and tables to help to solve problems systematically.

Problem Solving Identify relationships between numbers and make generalised statements using words, then symbols and letters, e.g. the second number is twice the first number plus 5 (n, 2n + 5); all the numbers are multiples of 3 minus 1 (3n 1); the sum of angles in a triangle is 180.
